Prevention of cognitive decline
Cultiva a Mente
There is a well-established and scientifically supported idea that taking care of oneself both physically and mentally provides well-being and quality of life that can last for years, and that older people can be active agents in the prevention of degenerative diseases.
In addition, maintaining social activities and independence in daily life are goals that are part of older people’s life plans.
Given this, we face the challenge of promoting healthier lifestyles and ensuring access to preventive services for older adults.
To do this, we must develop and adapt spaces, programmes and solutions adapted to their needs and in their environment. In response to health-related demand, more and more public and socio-community places include areas dedicated to physical and mental exercise.
In addition to the proven benefits of cognitive, physical, functional and social stimulation, it is also necessary to address the concerns and worries that arise at this stage of life for older people, as well as to foster greater empowerment in the face of current challenges (digitalisation, ecological commitment, equality…).
